Leading property portal Lamudi Lanka Ltd., will hosts its third Real Estate Expo this weekend. The event is set to provide direct access to the real estate world with a range of presenters and exhibitors showcasing Sri Lanka’s best property and home services to buyers, sellers and investors. The third Expo is scheduled to take place on the 17th and 18th of June at the North Lawn, Taj Samudra from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on both days. 

Lamudi launched its first real estate expo in May 2016 with the aim of making the process of purchasing your dream home easy and less time consuming. The two day event that ended successfully with many positive responses from participants and visitors encouraged Lamudi to host its second expo in the month of October 2016 at the North Lawn Taj Samudra. This second expo welcomed over a thousand property seekers from across the country marked a milestone for Lamudi Sri Lanka. 

Thanks to the success and the high demand generated from Lamudi’s previous real estate e, once again Lamudi once again brings the island’s real estate world under one roof this weekend (17th and 18th) at TajSamudra. The show will provide property seekers the chance to view the latest upcoming projects, meet leading real estate experts and obtain reliable services all at once. Lamudi extends a warm invitation to all buyers, sellers, investors and developers to participate in conversations and share new ideas at the event.

Recognized as a leading online portal for properties, Lamudi states that one of the main objectives of the real estate expo is to reach out to property seekers who do not have internet access. Even though the country’s internet penetration is rising, there are still many people who do not have access to the internet on a daily basis. Therefore the real estate expo will be a hotspot for offline property hunters to discover the infinite opportunities available in the real estate industry. 

The rapidly evolving real estate in Sri Lanka 

According to Lamudi’s 2017 research report, some of the key factors that make Sri Lankan real estate one of the most lucrative and safe investment choices is the continuously growing tourism sector that is capable of attracting large numbers of visitors from across the world. In addition to this the relaxation of regulations regarding the buying of property and lands for locals and foreigners are continuously encouraging local buyers and foreign investments. The increasing internet penetration (27%) in the country is leading to increasing numbers of online property seekers in particular.  Moreover, thanks to technological advancements which have contributed to the improvements of Sri Lankan economy, the country is now exposed to multiple global opportunities, thus making it one of the most desirable destinations to purchase a home/apartment, invest, and foster new businesses. 

Records and statistics from the past few years show that Colombo is the prime city where most property seekers and investors are interested in purchasing real estate. However, as a result of rapid urbanization, properties within the city’s limits are commanding very high prices, directing people to purchase properties in the outskirts as well as in Kandy, Galle, Rajagiriya, Dehiwala, and others.

As a result of the aforementioned factors, Lamudi believes that the third real estate expo will be an ideal spot for property seekers to find their dream properties and for investors to discover better investment opportunities all under one roof.  The event intends to provide developers with the opportunity to showcase their latest developments to a large crowd. In addition to browsing and discovering a wide range of properties, visitors are also able to meet esteemed real estate experts directly and discuss their requirements to obtain reliable services and offers. What’s more, developers will be showcasing their projects in the form of 3D models giving potential buyers a clear vision of properties.
